'An impeachable offense': Bill Maher rips Trump for federal response to coronavirus

HBO comedian Bill Maher said Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic amounts to impeachment.

While interviewing Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Real Time with Bill Maher host said it was "galling" that the president, in his view, was prioritizing the plights of some states over others during the coronavirus pandemic, calling it impeachable.

"I find one of the most galling parts of this is that the president is favoring certain states over the others. Governors who are nice to him, as he calls it, get a lot of attention and all the equipment they want," Maher began.

"To me, this is even more of an impeachable offense than what he did with Ukraine or Russia. How do you stop a president who is blatantly not the president of every state equally?" Maher asked, claiming that the president has not prioritized states such as California.

Sanders then claimed Trump's response was "literally beyond comprehension," but suggested it could be to bolster his chances in key states during the 2020 election.

Let’s stop the piling on Maher long enough to respond to the charge.

Perhaps the states who Trump provides all the material they need, don’t need as much. Places like New York City created their own problems. Cuomo and the Democrats drew down hospital beds by 25% since 2000. California, post Arnold, discarded the mobile pandemic units he had prepared in favor of a highway to nowhere. Now, those who did not plan well AND invited the pandemic by not imposing early lockdowns, complain that President Trump is not meeting their needs?!?! Nonsense!

Yes, it’s a real blessing that our largest state is relatively under control. We can’t handle the hotspots in NY/NJ as it is.

You live in NY, don’t you, ferret face? Any comments on how Cuomo is prioritizing NY City well above the rest of the State?

People really do not understand the phrase “high crimes and misdemeanors”.

Even if I think Trump did a crappy job like obama did for 8 years, crap does not equal impeachment.

ineptitude is not a high crime or misdemeanor.

and this was not inept handling.

FU Red CCP Maher, YOU wanted economic collapse, called for it years ago. This is YOUR ugly baby.

Impeach if he does, Impeach if he don’t.

There is no more to it, than that.

Not this shit again.

No kidding!! I am so tired and infuriated over the leftists' rants. They're vile and relentless. I'm GALLED that he is such a traitor to this country. Of course Trump has to prioritize some states over others. Some are more critical than others, and he doesn't have all the time in the world to help each state with the same amount of attention especially when the libs are no help at all - they offer only criticisms and cries for impeachment. It gets so old and maddening.

Is Maher THAT MUCH OF AN IDIOT that he doesn't see? Of course not; he hates this country so much. Instead of constantly screaming 'impeachment', why don't they offer good advice rather than running the man down every opportunity? Because helping this country isn't their goal.

So Bill Maher, STFU!!!

Gavin Newsom has heaped praise on President Trump's “proactive” response. California is in good shape compared to New York. New York is the problem child of the Chinese Virus.

Yep, 12,000 is nothing compared to New York which is now nearing 120,000 infected and my brother lives there in New York city which is driving my mom completely nuts as he won’t leave.

Is this the same Bill Maher who was hoping for the economy to crash in 2018????

He is loathesome. I’m a month from retirement and watching my 401k go down....I’m in it for the long haul, however and sitting tight. There is no word to describe people wishing for the economy to crash or peoples retirement savings to evaporate for a political gain, a pox on their houses.
